Ladies and Gentlemen: I believe we have stumbled onto the vortex responsible for the current power shortage! Power that stuff down and let California have some! As an aside, I'm horribly jealous of anyone with more than one high-end turntable! -A future customer
Sorry Jeffloistarca, but I agree with Bruce and evened out some of the negative votes, he got. This site, in my opinion is not for peeing contests but for exchanging knowledge and helping each other.
Yep, I see I got neg. votes from two people and it doesn't take much to deduce where they came from. Thanks for your input, I stand by what I said,
and you both miss most of the point. Katharina. the only one peeing here is you, and it is most unladylike.
Jeez, everyone lighten up. I didn't go out of my way to type all this stuff, I had it in a Word document and simply cut and pasted here. I felt it would be a good idea to have an inventory in the event theft or fire left me in replacement mode. I also took a bunch of digital pics for archiving purposes, if I worked in the insurance business I'd have some real doubts whether a claim involving all this stuff was legit. Quite honestly, I found the list of gear almost absurd and found a little humour in it all, if anyone thinks I'm strutting cuz I own 7000lbs of stuff, I think you misintrepreted my intentions. Let's face it, there are $250k two channel systems out there, making any of my systems appear to be a notch above my son's boombox. I also find the mix of gear that makes up anyone's system interesting, to see what stuff working together creates a synergistic sound at a particular price point. 'Nuff rambling, enjoy the hobby, we don't need to create our own cartoon sitcom, the Bickersons. Happy listening all, Jeff. p.s. thinking of a bathroom system, but not sure how a high end turntable would hold up to the steam etc..*g*
